 - not use vmap, which doesn't work on incoherent archs
 - use xdr_stream parsing for all xdr

If a data server is unavailable, go through MDS.

Mark the deviceid containing the data server as a negative cache entry.
Do not try to connect to any data server on a deviceid marked as a negative
cache entry. Mark any layout that tries to use the marked deviceid as failed.

Inodes with a layout marked as fails will not use the layout for I/O, and will
not perform any more layoutgets.
Inodes without a layout will still do layoutget, but the layout will get
marked immediately.

No need for generic cache with only one user.
Keep a simple hash of deviceids in the filelayout driver.

Introduce a data server set_client and init session following the
nfs4_set_client and  nfs4_init_session convention.

Once a new nfs_client is on the nfs_client_list, the nfs_client cl_cons_state
serializes access to creating an nfs_client struct with matching properties.

Use the new nfs_get_client() that initializes new clients.

Implement the driver's io_ops->alloc_lseg and free_lseg functions,
which integrate into the deviceid cache and calls out to
nfs4_proc_getdeviceinfo when necessary.
